acetyl β-endorphin

Acetyl β-endorphin (1-26) is a neuropeptide found in rat hippocampus, brain stem, and pituitary. It is also present in the human hypothalamus, where it comprises approximately 4.9% of total β-endorphin peptides. Acetyl β-endorphin (1-26) is produced through posttranslational processing of β-endorphin and is processed similarly in rat and human hypothalamus. Levels of acetyl β-endorphin (1-26) increase in the rat pars intermedia and brain stem following chronic administration of haloperidol .

N-Acetyl-α-Endorphin acetate is an acetylated α-Endorphin at N-terminal. α-Endorphin is an endogenous opioid peptide.

Acetyl-β-Endorphin (human) is a polypeptide identified through polypeptide screening, a research tool primarily using immunoassays to gather active polypeptides. This method is useful for protein interactions, functional analysis, antigen epitope screening, and particularly in the study and development of active molecules.

N-Acetyl-α-Endorphin is a chemical compound consisting of α-Endorphin that has been acetylated at the N-terminal. α-Endorphin, in turn, is an endogenous opioid peptide.
